User Rank Rationale

Doogitywoogity 17 Huge win for Cinci after some early setbacks. It won’t get easier with Utah and Houston coming up. Bearcats have to prove they’re legit or they’ll fall back out again.

Jakesnake42 18 Cincinnati is more difficult to place with their loss to WVU and getting demolished by Arizona but I do love the win over Texas Tech. Willing to reward that at this stage. Last Week: NR

HieloLuz 23 Cincinnati gets ranked for the first time since week 4 with a huge win over Texas Tech. It is their only quality win, but the best of the bucket. The loss to Arizona is fine, but the West Virginia loss is bad.
